This leads to well-knit partnerships that benefit both organizations. The benefits include reduced cycle times, faster time to market, and improved customer service. Microsoft BizTalk Server offers you a powerful B2B integration solution. This Learning Snack describes the benefits of B2B integration. It explains how BizTalk Server technologies such as Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), Applicability Statement 2 (AS2), and industry-specific accelerators help you implement a B2B integration solution.
